Rating: 5/5Excellent editing software

Pros: It's user interface is fairly friendly and easy to learn. Has all of the features I was missing in Windows Movie Maker. Cheaper than Sony Vegas.

Cons: It has it's quirks, just like any editing software. There's a few nice features in Sony Vegas that it doesn't include, but it doesn't bother me as I don't do anything super complicated.

Other Thoughts: After using freeware and Windows Movie Maker for a year or so, I decided it was time to get a real piece of editing software. I got this program on sale for $33, and it was an excellent purchase. I've been using it for almost 2 years, and I have created countless videos with it. I will continue using it as I refuse to be a pirate.

Rating: 1/5good if you don't want to make movies

This review is from: SONY Movie Studio Platinum 12 Suite

Pros: Included features, ease of use

Cons: It fails at the one thing that really matters, rendering clean videos.What good is fast performance, a full feature set etc. if the final rendered video is not clean. The issue I have is that the final file has "glitches" and "stutters" rendered into it (it is not a playback issue). In my case it is not because I'm taxing my PC (see other thoughts). All I have tried is simple slide shows at standard definition (no motion clips) as short as 15secs to a few minutes long and the output always has hiccups, regardless of file type. To make things worse Sony's tech support has not responded to my issue.

Other Thoughts: Note I have used various consumer video editing programs over the years but this is the first time using a Sony product.For reference here are my system specs:Win 7 Pro 64bit8 Gb Rami7-2600KATI 7890 2GB
